Installing the OpenSocial component

In addition to the existing (and familiar) IBM® Domino® server installation wizard, in order to supply OpenSocial features from a Domino® server, you must run an IBM® Domino® Social Edition OpenSocial component installer wizard to support IBM® Domino® Social Edition embedded experiences for your client users.

Before you begin

If your organization intends to provide OpenSocial features to iNotes® client as well as Notes® clients, any Domino® server where the OpenSocial component is installed must have a ServerTasks entry in its NOTES.INI file to support DOTs (Domino® OSGi Tasklet Service). For more information, see Configuring automatic updates for widgets.

About this task

For information on where to get the installer, see the technote in the related topics.

See the following procedures for instructions specific to platform on running the additional installer.
